Well, you are right and indeed correct about the state of affairs in Philippines. I'm indeed surprise to see that you are barge enough to be honest about this(very few/if any members on here can openly admit any shortcomings/fault about their country in this forum and most are simply too biased so much that any thing(no matter how obvious/real/factual) you say whixh they think is not favorable to their country, will immediately be labeled as anti-that country or start calling you names etc.lool
So its always good to see members like you are who are bold enough to admit any shortcomings about their country, this makes conversations on here more constructive/valuable.
Anyway, i am sure the phillipiines will one day find its way out of its current predicament, the country has been trying a lot recently, like encouraging/attracting more FDI, witnessing one of the highest GDP growth in Asia and improving its HDI etc. Though much remains to be done, like tackle corruption, bureaucracy, favouritism etc. Also Philippines is not the only country in the region to differ from widespread corruption other countries like Vietnam, Cambodia, India, Thailand and even China also suffer from this as well. Philippines just have to make sure corruption is maintained to a tolerable level where it doesn't affect the country's growth and impact on business/economic activities.
Best wishes to philippines.
